It would be a public service if the TV networks would run the full press conference of Trump ranting out from Mar-a-Lago on a loop for the next few days.
Full gift link to the NY Times summaries here. It’s about time people got a full look at Trump uncut; the summaries alone can’t evade just how unhinged it is.
President-elect Donald J. Trump said Tuesday that he would not rule out the use of military or economic coercion to force Panama to give up control of the canal America built more than a century ago and to force Denmark to sell Greenland to the United States. In a rambling, hourlong news conference, Mr. Trump also reiterated his threat that “all hell will break out in the Middle East” if the hostages being held by Hamas are not released by Inauguration Day, repeating the threat four times. “If they’re not back by the time I get into office, all hell will break out in the Middle East,” he told reporters. “And it will not be good for Hamas, and it will not be good, frankly, for anyone. All hell will break out. I don’t have to say anymore, but that’s what it is.”
There’s lots more fun at the link.
It looks like the Gray Lady isn’t sanewashing him quite as hard now that they’ve succeeded in keeping the country from going too far left. The real problem after all, was that Biden was too old, Harris didn’t hold enough press conferences, and the price of eggs was too high.
Tom Tomorrow Nailed it.
Never mind that Democrats politely went right ahead and certified the election — despite the 14th amendment ban on insurrectionists holding office. Never mind that Trump’s mental fitness was never a big deal to the media, more concerned about Biden. IOKIYAR — until it’s not. Welcome to FAFO, America.
I wonder if Trump is trying to divert attention away from his mental health by surrounding himself with crazy people?
”Nobody could have predicted…”
Here’s an entertaining video to take your mind off what’s coming. Thomas Dolby and Chaka Khan throw some Latin lyrics over clips of old computer animation of apocalyptic scenes. It’s a catchy little tune called “Armageddon.”
